Is the guitar in this package the same as "Epiphone LP Special II Les Paul Electric Guitar" which retails for $169 right here on amazon?

Yes, and this is a very good deal here, but currently there is an even better one somewhere else. I'm sure this won't last forever since the membership stores change inventory frequently, but currently one of the big box membership stores has this bundle for $199.99 with free shipping, but almost shockingly, it includes over 50 dollars worth of additional items including a 9 dollar set of extra strings, a 13 dollar guitar stand, a 6 dollar chord finder book, and a 25 dollar set of headphones with 3.5 and 6.5 mm plug adapter.

everyone is saying it is but is NOT. The one in the package is a Les Paul special II LTD which comes with a signature Les Paul head and name plate. the standard special II doesn't have that ( take a close look at the advertising and you will see the difference ).

NO -- similar but not the same. Aside from the cosmetic issue (nameplate, etc) The LTD has a solid alder body, where the special II has a mahogany laminate body. Does that make a difference? You decide. I think the tuners (& perhaps overall build quality) on the LTD are slightly better, too, but that's just an impression. Note that the LTD does NOT have an ebony neck; it's rosewood, just like the non-LTD.

Nope, Its a Davison Guitar. More info on their site here : http://davisonguitarcompany.com/home.html (this is not a US company btw)

Inside the box was a folded poster of all the guitars made by Epiphone. The guitar came with a Limited Lifetime Warranty and there were instructions on how to register the instrument on line. There was nothing else in the box. The guitar was packed extremely well.

Thanks for the tip.I actually ended up getting the AP-220 for $650, Guitar Center had a $150 off coupon. That was less than Amazon has ever sold it so I jumped on it.$500 is a great price for the PX-130 with all the extras though... all you'd need is a stool, and maybe a cover for the keyboard to keep dust off when not playing.

I haven't seen the 259 dollar version and even if I had I probably wouldn't know the difference. The one I got was just a nice starter guitar that I use for playing Rocksmith.

I use an Epiphone DOT semi-hollow body its one of the cheapest but it sounds great when i plug in to an amp and play with my friend he has a Gibson 335 and i stay right up there with him. but i suggest go with a nice Epiphone they are great guitars

It's a cheaper version of the guitar player by Jimi Hendrix, Eric Clapton, & many more the Fender Stratocaster. If you're just starting to play it's not a bad deal.

No. Cables and Amps are sold with beginner guitars. This is a more serious instrument; and a great one at that. The Epiphone Les Paul Special can be bought in a package deal with starter accessories.

Hi Dan, I am not sure. I am in Dubai now and my guitar is in Colorado. When I got the guitar I immediately took it to a guitar shop to have it set up. The owner of the shop was somewhat dismal to see this guitar and hear of the price that I paid. He said he could no longer afford to sell guitars because of these prices. He told me that he could not make a guitar like this for even close to what I paid. It is a very nice instrument. I haven't played much but plan to do so when I return to the States. Sorry I couldn't help out.

Both are great. Especially for this price you can't go wrong. It's not gonna be comparable to a $400 acoustic guitar but it can't be beat at its price. I bought an electric guitar as well and now I'm thinking about selling that because I use this all the time over that. :)

Yes, it is. I have been using it with the original Rocksmith and it works great. I'm sure it works with the newest Rocksmith because all you need is the cord to plug it from your console to guitar. It really is a great guitar for the money. I did, however, ditch the amp that comes with it and bought a Fender Mustang 2, what a difference. Enjoy.

It looked to be a newer version of the electronics than that on my Sunburst AJ-220SCE, Both are wonderful playing and sounding guitars. The first one I bought had a really bad neck but using Amazon prime was no problem sending it back and getting replacement

I'm not sure what the guarantee is through Amazon; but this is a great product. Steve Krenz is a great guitar teacher. His presentation of each lesson is thorough and easy to follow. The web support that is offered through Gibson is included with the purchase. I rate it A+.

Best if you are purchasing this to ask amazon. Because I think there are two different complete sets. Overall the guitar is great including the things that come with it.
